I’m still working on better understanding implied pot odds, but I’d say they don’t apply here. The scenario you present is heads up, so unless we are talking about a tourney situation where he’s a short stack and would already be committed, there’s only so much money you’ll be able to get out of him if that flush hits. As you say, it’s not like he’s not going to see that it is out there.
Implied odds come into play more often in multiway pots, or in situations where you have the possibility of hitting a full house to beat a flush. |

how about leading out on the turn if you make your flush and he checks to you? you're almost sure to get a call from a hand like AK.. especially since your average good player will assume you won't lead out with a flush.. and you may be representing one because it hit and he showed weakness.

Or try raising his continuation bet on the flop. If you miss, you may get a free card, or he may even fold if the K is a scare card to him. This sounds like a tourney situation based on the scenario, so the above recommendation is very dependent on relative stack sizes to each other and to the blinds.
But on a pure pot odds play, it's tough because flushes are obvious based on the board. |
